He’s the boy no one notices—except to hurt. At home, bruises bloom like secrets. At school, whispers cut deeper than fists. With no friends, no voice, and no escape, the world has taught him to disappear.

Then he shows up. Unbothered, unapologetic, and unwilling to look away. The new guy who sees everything he’s trying to hide. Slowly, painfully, kindness starts to unravel the silence. But trust doesn’t come without questions, and healing never comes without scars.

And somewhere between the quiet glances and unspoken words...
something begins that neither of them saw coming.
